Following the most recent flood to devastate her outback village, educator Anne Pollock went to see how her beloved Pigeon Hole school was holding up.
It had avoided more significant destruction this time.

During a tropical monsoon flood earlier this month, the river reached a 30-year height of 24 meters, forcing dozens of inhabitants from Pigeon Hole, also known as Nitjpurru, to flee their homes.
